CUFA helps people to break free from poverty by teaching them how to manage their money, and equipping them with the skills and resources so they can save for a brighter future.
CUFA has been delivering programs that develop people and strengthen communities since 1971. Our work is focussed on building and promoting the development of financial cooperatives throughout the Asia Pacific to help alleviate poverty in some of the poorest communities of our neighbouring region.
Through sustainable development CUFA supports communities and helps people build a brighter future for themselves.
Our unique development approach centres on the individual with its impact extending to the whole community. Instead of just giving money, CUFA teaches people how to use it.
We help entrepreneurs to develop small businesses, providing employment opportunities and retaining income within the village.
We teach children from a young age how to save money so they are better equipped to save well and avoid debt when they grow up.
We provide the training and resources to foster ethical and inclusive financial services so that everybody in the village has the opportunity to save, regardless of their gender, ethnicity, mobility or relative wealth.
This approach increases the capacity of locals to lift themselves out of poverty, in fact, creating sustainable change to hundreds of thousands of people across the region.
Your support will help CUFA reach more people with our life-changing programs.
